It contains:
PowerPoint Presentation
Teacher’s Guide on how to conduct the assembly
Playscript of the Parable
Posters for display
Cross-curricular to Religious Studies and Citizenship.
The theme is ‘forgiveness’ based on The Parable of the Lost Son.
Learning Objective: To understand what forgiveness means.
Children are asked why we should say ‘sorry’ and understand the meaning of forgiveness and understanding.
The children are asked about their own experience of getting hurt and wanting that person to say sorry and what it feels like if they don’t apologize.
They are taken through the story and asked questions along the way.
I’ve written a playscript based on the story. You may wish to have a group of children act out the story instead of reading it on the slides. There are questions on the slides for children to think about.
Suitable for Foundation classes, Keystage 1/Lower Keystage 2, SEN and ESL children, individual/smaller sessions for children that need extra support.
This comprehensive resource is a review of the digraphs - sh, ch, th, ng, ck, ph and wh.
It aims to consolidate the pupils learning of the digraphs by saying the sounds, listening, sorting, shared reading and writing activities.
There are practical activities - Just print and laminate pictures, flashcard words and the circles with each digraph onto card paper for repeated use.
The PowerPoint Presentation (20 slides) contains:-
Whole class activities such as slide view animation of the digraph as they whirl in - children say the sounds;
Audio - children listen to the words and decide which digraph each word contains;
Click and drag to sort pictures under the correct digraph heading;
Shared reading text - look for the digraphs and true/false comprehension activity;
There is an extra sorting activity presentation - print off slides 1 and 2 and children can do this activity at their tables instead of the click and drag activity in the main Presentation.

Content

There is a Recording Sheet with space for the pupil’s name and date for when each activity card was completed.
Alternative uses
I have included blank card and coins which you can prepare to suit the needs of your pupils.

Pupils can cut out the little flags and stick on the blank task cards.
For small group or one-to-one activity
Lay out cards that have the same value but different combinations of coins.
Ask pupils to match the cards that add up the same amount and elicit what coins were used on each card. E.g. Both cards add up to 50 Euro cents but one card shows 3x 10c and 1x 20c and the other card shows 2x20c and 1x 10c.

This resource comprises 5 worksheets on the water cycle and a missing jigsaw activity.
The worksheets are also on PowerPoint and PDF format.
These are additional worksheets you can give out during the lesson, use as assessment on the water cycle or as homework.
Two worksheets require students to write about the water cycle in their own words.
Three worksheets entail cut and paste activities. The simpler activities are cutting out the word strips and glue them onto the correct blank space to show the water cycle process.
The other cut and paste activity requires students to write the title in their workbooks or on a separate sheet of paper. Then they write about each word, cut out the strip and glue it into their workbooks. Some students may only be able to complete 4 strips. Let them choose a word to write about.
Once the students have written something about each word, they can draw a picture for each strip.
There is a jigsaw puzzle to complete. It has 4 pieces missing with which students complete the puzzle picture of the water cycle. When this is completed, student cut out and stick the labels into the correct spaces on the completed puzzle. A finished puzzle is included to how the puzzle should look. NB: The picture was drawn on the computer and coloured in by hand.
Missing Jigsaw Puzzle pieces (b/w) – Print off the page with just one puzzle piece in place. Students complete the whole puzzle by cutting out the rest of the puzzles (8 pieces) and sticking them in place to complete the water cycle picture. Then as above, cut out the words and glue beneath the correct picture, e.g. precipitation would go beneath the rain cloud.
Students can then colour in.
Hope you enjoy using these resources.

Activity 3 (8 pages)- Cut and Paste activity - The activity involves children cutting out buttons and arranging them in an array according to what is asked in the boxes: e.g. 5 x 2, so the student cuts out 2 lots of 5 buttons (10) and form them in an array, e.g. 5 buttons in a row and 2 columns.
Extension for more able: On Activity Sheets 1 and 2 - The children can write the multiplication number sentence inside the box below their repeated additions- 2 + 2 + 2
2 X 3 = 6
3 + 3
3 X 2 = 6

Tell students that There are two blue blank boxes below the tens frame for students to write two addition sums.
Ask: How many blue counters do you see?
Ask: How many yellow counters do you see?
Now tell the students to write an addition sum using the plus and equals sign and then to show you on their whiteboards.
Ask: Does it matter which way we write the addition sum? And would it change the answer?

3 + 3 = 6 is the same as saying double 3 is 6
